Warmest May in Oslo for at least 150 years, by far. My weather station has been running for 16 years. The warmest May I had ever recorded, until this year, was 11.0 °C (the coldest 7.0 °C). The mean for May this year just in: 14.9 °C, shattering the previous record by almost 4 degrees. Wow. Yesterday the high reached 28.7 °C, also a record for May. And May began with fresh snow and I was skiing on 1st May.

Yuck! I could barely stand to be outdoors in that heat, let alone have to work in it.

Over my way we've had a very warm and sunny May. It's been gorgeous but I hope we get a good period of rain before summer arrives. Couple years ago it was like this from May through September and it stressed the trees pretty badly.

Source of the post I hoped for cooler wet weather, and I got more than I bargained for. Snow is coming to the mid elevations (~1200m). In June! Very unusual to get snow this low this late in the season.

After an extremely hot May Scandinavia is now divided. Still mostly very warm in the south, and cold in the Norway with snow even at sea level. Which isn't unheard of in June, but quite unusual for many days in row as now. Oslo has seen temperatures between 2 and 32C so far in June, either end quite close to as far as it can go in June.

The lower troposphere in May as measured by satellites had a hotspot in May. For the NH it came out as +0.40C above the 1981-2010 mean, and -0.05 for the SH.

It's pouring and it's sunny out! there is only one tiny cloud above my lab and it's producing a awful lot of rain. There are more clouds coming my way, but they're not here yet, so it's just this one little cloud!
